Cougs were killing UCLA throughout most of the 1st half with back cuts and timely 3's. Unfortunately, UCLA started pounding the ball down low with Josh Smith and the other guy, which WSU didn't have a real answer for. WSU played their butts off to the end but it was very obvious that Aden couldn't supply the outside firepower and he missed way too many free throws as well. As much as they missed Thompson, the really missed Moore late in the game as they had no real ball handler to break the UCLA press.
